Work backwards.

Start with z = 4.

Now deal with the middle equation

y + 3z = 11                    Substitute z = 4 and solve for y

y + 3(4) = 11                  Subtract 12 from both sides

y + 12 = 11

y + 12 - 12 = 11 -12         Combine terms on the left and right

y = - 1                             Now use the top equation for x

z = 4                              z still = 4

2x + 4(-1) +3(4) = 14

2x - 4 + 12 = 14              Solve 3z

2x + 8 = 14                     Subtract 8

2x + 8 - 8 = 14 - 8          Combine

2x = 6                            Divide by 2

x = 6/2

x = 3

Answer

x = 3

y = - 1

z = 4

Make a table showing all the possible outcomes for spinning the pointer of a spinner with four equal-sized sections labeled 1–4
natka813 [3]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two types of spinners here and the outcome of them is independent. That means

P(odd number,C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

There are two odd numbers out of four numbers in the first spinner. The chance of odd number will be:

P(odd) = 2/(2+2)= 1/2= 50%

There are four letters and the desired outcome is C. The chance for C will be:

P(C)= 1/4= 25%

Then the chance will be:

P(odd number,C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

P(odd number,C) =50% * 25% = 12.5%

Can yall please help lol
const2013 [10]

Answer:

1.) Triangle ABC is congruent to Triangle CDA because of the SAS theorem

2.) Triangle JHG is congruent to Triangle LKH because of the SSS theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright. Let's start with the 1st figure. How do we prove that triangles ABC and CDA (they are named properly) are congruent? First, we can see that segments BC and AD have congruent markings, so that can help us. We also see a parallel marking for those segments as well, meaning that the diagonal AC is also a transversal for those parallel segments. That means we can say that angle CAD is congruent to angle ACB because of the alternate interior angles theorem. Then, the 2 triangles also share the side AC (reflexive property).

So, we have 2 congruent sides and 1 congruent angle for each triangle. And in the way they are listed, this makes the triangles congruent by the SAS theorem since the angle is adjacent to the 2 sides that are congruent.

The second figure is way easier. As you can clearly see by the congruent markings on the diagram, all the sides on one triangle are congruent to the other. So, since there are 3 sides congruent, we can say the triangles JHG and LKH are congruent by the SSS theorem.
